Birthday Lunches And More.......

OK so I wanted to take a few minutes while I can to catch you up on some of the fun stuff going on around here. Morgan turns 9 on Wed.(she will get a special post that day) but we let her take a few friends to lunch at the Rain Forest Cafe this weekend. I'm not sure why Milo does this every time Morgan picks him up but we are thinking of renaming him stretch. :)

The girls had their Valentines party with our home school group and it was so cute to see how excited they were to get all the little cards and notes from friends. We often loose sight of how much pleasure those little things can bring.
We went with some friends on a field trip to the San-Diego Zoo and it was the one beautiful day we had in a long time. It was almost do I dare say it? Warm! :) They had so much fun and I was EXHAUSTED from all the walking.
Tomorrow (the 8Th) Dan and I celebrate 13 years of marriage.
13 Things I Love About you...............
1. You are EASY to be around and not just me but with everyone. You have a personality that just flows and gets along well with others in all situations.
2. You go out of your way to stay physically fit. Not obsessive to the point of being annoying but just sticking with your hobby and being healthy and consistent. It shows me you care about your health and also what I think even after all these years together.
3. You are driven. I LOVE that about you. It can sometimes be overwhelming when you are going to school, testing at work to promote, disciplining other young men and running off to be at work for days but I love that you are ambitious and you always balance things well so that our family doesn't suffer.
4. Your amazingly tall and handsome.
5. You laugh so hard you cry and that makes me laugh so hard I cry even before I know what we are laughing at.
6. You LOVE your daughters. You adore them. You think they are amazing and funny and unique and silly.
7. You value marriage.
8. You value my health to the point of following the same food restrictions I do so I am not left out.
9. You are warm blooded which is good cause I need somewhere to stick my cold feet.
10. You love the Lord and value integrity. You can admit when you are wrong but don't let it drag us down; instead moving on and upward to a better marriage.
11. You love to travel and go places and learn and try new things.
12. Your a man's man.
13. I LOVE that you have a heart to see marriages be at it's best. When someone we know is struggling you are eager to meet and pray with them, do a bible study etc. to help them stay married.
I love you honey. Thank you for the most fun, craziest, insane, roller coaster 13 years ever. I love that we get to mark another year for our team tomorrow. Our marriage has been through the fire and its a great testament that you can make it work and with God ALL things ARE possible.
